Where can I read about addressing structures in a binary file?

Question

Programming

Prompt methods of addressing structures in a binary file. By what methods are structures addressed? Or tell me a resource where to read.
Here's what I found: by offset from the entry point, by offset from the parent structure. What else could there be? Example?
The task is this: describe the structures of the binary file and overlay them on the dump, but that's me.

Answer 1

It is possible without addressing. Just create the structure you need using the means of the language in which you write. You create a specific instance, take a pointer to it and load your dump into memory, voila, the structure is filled with data.
